"Roads" scholar Travis O'Hearn is one hundred years old but looks twenty. His traveling companion is a green demon with a nasty habit of eating people. When they arrive at a resort town in California, all hell breaks loose.
In Christopher Moore's ingenious debut novel, we meet one of the most memorably mismatched pairs in the annals of literature. The good-looking one is one-hundred-year-old ex-seminarian and "roads" scholar Travis O'Hearn. The green one is Catch, a demon with a nasty habit of eating most of the people he meets. Behind the fake Tudor façade of Pine Cove, California, Catch sees a four-star buffet. Travis, on the other hand, thinks he sees a way of ridding himself of his toothy traveling companion. The winos, neo-pagans, and deadbeat Lotharios of Pine Cove, meanwhile, have other ideas. And none of them is quite prepared when all hell breaks loose.
"Christopher Moore deserves acclaim on the Dave Barry/Christopher Buckley level..."
